Has anyone else had serious problems with Hamsharp? I am using the copy found in /incoming/amiga on Xanth, and it seems to have problems with about 20% of all GIF's I throw at it. On these images, it produces no error messages, but the HAM file created is garbage, and I am forced to use something like shamview instead. Does anyone else have a more stable package they would recommend? I like Hamsharp because it doesn't shrink pictures vertically. Any others do that? Dave Buchthal P.S. Perry - I'm sure TAD will handle it, but I was looking for something PD. ;-)

I've used HAMSHARP with no such problems for several months. You are most likely using an old version of HAMSHARP, which has recently had conversion-to-SHAM routines added to it, and its name changed to SHAMSHARP.
